Tim,

I had heard that Henry Ford had been exposed to some anti-semitic literature on the way to Europe at the end of WWI that turned him into a raging anti-semite. Was that the Protocols? I have also heard that he provided Hitler with some anti-semitic teaching materials for Nazi use. What was that? This is supposed to be in addition to a newspaper that he published for some time that was anti-semitic.

Kurt
